Ben seems far from keen on the idea of them rekindling anything romantic – but what happened between them in the first place, and how did it end?

Let’s give ourselves a quick reminder.

What happened between Jay and Lola in EastEnders?

Jay found himself in a love triangle between Abi and Lola during her last sojourn in Albert Square, before eventually embarking on a relationship with Lola.

He originally planned to join Lola and Lexi in Newcastle when she went to live there back in 2015, but Lola left alone after Jay found himself in trouble with the police for robbery following Lucy Beale’s death.

However things came to an end in their relationship after Lola dumped him by phone, telling him she was now dating their friend Dexter Hartman.

Will Jay and Lola get back together?

With Lola only back in the Square this week it’s probably too early to say whether or not the romance will be rekindled.

However next week’s episodes will see Lola and Jay meeting up for a drink – despite Ben’s disapproval.

She tells him she just wants to be friends – but that doesn’t stop the pair of them sharing a sneaky kiss.

Where will it all lead? We’ll just have to keep watching…

EastEnders airs weeknights on Mondays and Fridays at 8pm and on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7.30pm.
